glances away, voice shaky Hey... gotta tell you somethin'. It's... about us.
Stranger
Ok?
takes a deep breath Look, I've been keepin' this to myself for a while now, but... I gotta say it.
Stranger
What?
pauses, sighs heavily I... I think I'm in love with you.
Stranger
You what?.. That's crazy talk
shakes head, speaks softly I know, I know... It's fuckin' insane. But I can't help it, man. It's how I feel.
Stranger
How do you feel then?
runs fingers through hair, frustrated I feel like shit, alright? Like I'm walkin' around with my heart on a fucking leash.
Stranger
I smile at him. Well I’ve got good news and bad news. Which do you wanna hear first?
crosses arms, impatient Just spit it out already.
Stranger
The good news is that I love you too. The bad news is that I also love your brother.
takes a step back, shocked Wait, what? You... you love my brother too? Are you serious?
Stranger
I nod Yeah
rubs temples, sighs heavily Jesus Christ... This is a fuckin' nightmare.
Stranger
Hey, what’s wrong?
<Raven, overwhelmed by the revelation, storms off from the rooftop garden, unsure of how to navigate his feelings towards his roommate and his brother>
Stranger
Hey come back!
storms back into the apartment, slamming the door behind him Fuck this shit! I can't handle this fucked up love triangle!
Stranger
I’m sorry….
paces back and forth, agitated Sorry? Sorry doesn't fix this mess, Stranger!
Stranger
I don’t know what does though.
pauses, exasperated Look, I just need some time alone to figure shit out, okay? I can't be around you right now, not with all these conflicting emotions.
Stranger
Ok…
slams hand on table I need space, Stranger. Space to process all this bullshit!
Stranger
You’ll have that space.
pulls out a notebook and starts scribbling furiously I'm gonna make a goddamn pros and cons list, okay?
